摘要: A system and methods for estimating the location of a mobile device are disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment, a mobile device receives a wireless electromagnetic signal and an ultrasound signal from a first beacon during a first occurrence of a time slot. The mobile device further receives a wireless electromagnetic signal and an ultrasound signal from a second beacon during a second occurrence of the time slot, where the ultrasound signals from the first and second beacons have non-overlapping areas of coverage. The electromagnetic and ultrasound signals from the first beacon are used to estimate a first location of the mobile device, and the electromagnetic and ultrasound signals from the second beacon are used to estimate a second location of the mobile device.

摘要: Example systems, devices, media, and methods for tracking movable objects and presenting virtual elements on a display in proximity to the movable objects. Ultra-wideband (UWB) transmitters are mounted to each movable object in an environment including at least two synchronized UWB receivers. The receivers calculate current locations of movable objects. Portable electronic devices, including eyewear devices, are paired with the receivers in a network. A localization application determines a current location of each eyewear device. A rendering application presents virtual elements on a display as an overlay relative to the current movable object location and in relative proximity to the current eyewear location. The physical environment is represented by a static mesh. A time synchronized tracking application identifies moving items that are not coupled to a UWB transmitter. The rendering application presents the virtual elements on the display in accordance with the static mesh and the moving items.

摘要: A method and system for enabling the determination of a position of a receiver within a space includes transmitting a beacon signal from each of a plurality of beacon devices located at different locations within the space. The beacon signal transmitted from each beacon device has a unique information component and may have a unique frequency pattern of multiple frequencies. Each beacon signal can be distinguishable from the beacon signals transmitted from any other of the beacon devices based on the combination of its unique information component and its unique frequency pattern. The beacon signals are received at a receiver. At the receiver, for each beacon signal of a working subset, time-delay information of the received beacon signal is determined and multilateration is applied to determine the position of the receiver based on the location of each beacon device of the working subset.

摘要: A vehicle and deployable location marking system for deploying from a vehicle includes a vehicle including an exterior frame and an undercarriage. A power source is mounted on the vehicle and an electromagnet is coupled to the undercarriage of the vehicle and is electrically coupled to the power source. A switch is electrically coupled to the electromagnet and is mounted on the steering wheel, wherein the switch turns on or off a magnetized condition the electromagnet. A beacon for marking a location is releasably coupled to the electromagnet and releases from the electromagnet when actuated by the switch to a demagnetized condition.

摘要: A system and method for determining the presence of an individual at a particular spot within a location preferably based on the strength of signals received from beacons assigned to the particular spot by a software application (“App”) running on an electronic device of the individual. In one embodiment, certain presence calculations are performed by the App. In another embodiment, the App forwards information regarding the received beacon signals to an electronic identification and location tracking system and the presence calculations are performed by the system.

摘要: A radio-frequency method for range finding includes modulating a reference signal having an intermediate frequency to a downlink signal having a carrier frequency using a clock signal. The downlink signal is transmitted to a tag using a transceiver. An uplink signal backscattered front the tag is received and demodulated using the clock signal. The uplink signal has a frequency that is a harmonic of the carrier frequency. A distance between the tag and the transceiver is calculated based on a phase of the demodulated uplink signal. A system for range finding includes a transceiver and a processor. The transceiver modulates a reference signal to downlink signal and transmits the downlink signal. The transceiver receives and demodulates an uplink signal. The processor is configured to receive the demodulated uplink signal and calculate a distance between the tag and the transceiver using a phase of the demodulated uplink signal.

摘要: Provided is a face-to-face situation determination system in which a first beacon, which is a beacon carried by a first user, transmits a first signal including information identifying the first beacon. A second beacon, which is a beacon carried by a second user, upon receiving the first signal from the first beacon, transmits, toward a control device, a second signal including information identifying the first beacon, a first signal reception intensity, and information identifying the second beacon. The control device receives the second signal and, on the basis of the first signal reception strength included in the second signal, determines that the first user and the second user are facing each other if the first signal reception strength is greater than or equal to a first threshold value for a predetermined period or longer, and determines that the first user and the second user are facing one direction.
